Description

Does drinking alcohol affect your hormones? It definitely does, but how much you drink and how well your body tolerates it depends on you! 

If you are wondering how much alcohol you can enjoy over the holidays without totally throwing off your hormones, I brought back a conversation that answers this in the clearest, most honest way - without guilt, scare tactics, and without telling you that you can never drink again. 

Here’s what we walk through together:

  • How alcohol interacts with your hormones, liver, minerals, and blood sugar
  • Why your reactions show up a day or two later, not always the morning after
  • Simple ways to drink more intentionally, if you choose to drink, so your hormones don’t pay for it afterward

If you’ve ever felt torn between wanting to enjoy the holidays and wanting to feel like yourself, this episode will help you make choices that actually support both. You’ll walk away feeling more informed and more supported, so you can decide for yourself what feels worth it this season.
